Content

Averroès and Rosa Parks: two sections of the Esquirol Hospital Center that are part of the same psychiatric center as Adamant in Paris. Nicolas Philibert has tried to capture a kind of psychiatry that still aims to listen and heal the patients’ stories. Gradually, they reveal their inner worlds. In a health system that is running out of resources, how can they bring isolated people back to a common world?

Production

The film triptych of feature documentaries devoted to patients and caregivers in Paris’ Central Psychiatric Group is second in the series after 2023 film On the Adamant. The first film was of a unique floating structure moored on the Seine River devoted to caring for people with mental disorders, whereas At Averroes & Rosa Parks tells of more classic facilities. The director said that “while the Adamant attracts attention, the other structures, more classical, are no less essential.” He further said that Averroès & Rosa Parks “is an extension of the first film. It’s a little as if, after having filmed the stage, this time I was showing the wings and basement.”

TS Productions produced the film with Les Films du Losange. Nicolas Philibert, the director also acted as director of photography and the editor, whereas music was composed by Sarah Murcia with Magic Malik based on The Hymn of Joy by Henry van Dyke Jr. on Symphony No. 9 by Ludwig van Beethoven.

Reception

Fabien Lemercier reviewing the film at Berlinale for Cineuropa wrote, “Nicolas Philibert sends a powerful message embedded within a very high-level documentary.” Jonathan Romney wrote in ScreenDaily giving a positive review, “A tougher watch than its predecessor, but an extremely accomplished and compelling work.” Jordan Mintzer reviewing the film for The Hollywood Reporter termed it as “Endearing and eye-opening,” and opined, “By giving the patients considerable time and space to bare themselves before the camera, Philibert grants us access to the darker sides of the human psyche, portraying mental illness with an innate sense of compassion and understanding.”
